Pedestrian bump out and green planter barriers to protect pedestrians and improve their visibility
Cars often block the crosswalks here—traffic from the BQE is too fast and makes crossing anywhere on Humboldt dangerous. Motorists almost never stop at stop signs.
Because of the BQE exit on Humboldt St., there are many large trucks and commercial vehicles speeding down this street. It could use traffic calming or automated cameras to prevent trucks rat-running.
This crosswalk is not very safe for pedestrians; cars go very fast here and often blow the light.
Need a crosswalk across metropolitan here
Got doored here once while on my bike. Need to have some kind of separated bike lane here so that I won't die from people not paying attention
When cycling on this stretch of Leonard between BQE and Grand, I feel like I have to be extra careful of cars veering / swerving in the unprotected bike lane. Some protection would go a long way to prevent distracted drivers from accidentally clipping a rider
Cars park very poorly on this block and the bike lane is almost always flooded. All times of year
Vehicle illegal parking in bus lane makes buses block traffic and then bikes also have to go into the street outside of protection
Manhattan Ave is the most direct northbound route to Greenpoint/LIC so large semi trucks use this road. Please note Manhattan Ave is NOT a truck route. I understand local deliveries are allowed but this amount of semi tuck traffic is not all local. There is a school and bike lane here. Semi trucks crowding the bike lane and speeding to make a light in front of a school is UNSAFE and UNACCEPTABLE. Police enforcement is not working. How can DOT implement STREET DESIGN to prevent semi trucks from using Manhattan Ave? Why are block reversals not being implemented here?
